Biden Admin Hit Hard: Major Election Lawsuit Could Change Everything

In a bold move to protect election integrity, the state of Florida has just launched a lawsuit against the Biden Administration, claiming that federal authorities are stonewalling their efforts to purge noncitizens from voter rolls. Florida, led by Attorney General Ashley Moody, argues that the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) is refusing to provide critical immigration data needed to verify whether certain registered voters are eligible to vote. This comes at a critical time, with Election Day less than three weeks away, and the issue of election security front and center in the national debate.

According to Florida’s lawsuit, the state has found individuals on its voter rolls who are suspected of being noncitizens, but investigators have been unable to verify their status due to a lack of cooperation from DHS. Federal law requires DHS to assist states in verifying immigration status through the Systematic Alien Verification for Entitlements (SAVE) program, but Florida says DHS has refused to provide the necessary information, leaving the state unable to fulfill its statutory duty to ensure only citizens can vote.

“Voting is a right granted to American citizens—not illegal immigrants or other noncitizens,” Moody said in a statement, accusing the Biden Administration of obstructing Florida’s efforts to maintain clean voter rolls. Secretary of State Cord Byrd echoed this sentiment, arguing that only American citizens should have the right to vote, and warning that federal inaction is undermining the integrity of the state’s elections.

The lawsuit seeks a court order compelling DHS to respond to Florida’s information requests, which could have major implications for election security nationwide. With millions of illegal immigrants entering the country under Biden’s watch, Florida is insisting that the federal government remove barriers to ensuring the integrity of voter rolls. The timing of the lawsuit—just 18 days before Election Day—could be pivotal if handled swiftly by the courts.

This isn’t the first time the Biden Administration has found itself embroiled in battles over voter rolls. Several states have already faced off with the federal government over their attempts to clean up their voter databases, often finding themselves blocked from accessing critical information. But now, Florida is taking the fight directly to DHS, seeking to force compliance in what could set a major precedent.

As election integrity becomes a defining issue in this election cycle, Florida’s lawsuit is poised to escalate the battle over who gets to vote—and who shouldn’t. Stay tuned, because this legal fight could change the game.
